Quotes

“His music genuinely comes from his heart with emotionally rich lyrics that defy his years, and a voice that will stir your soul. “…a voice that will stir your soul. Alex Coba is the real deal.” 
-Wallis House Concerts 

“Alex Coba tells stories of everyday Americans, and in a way that makes you think they are about someone you may or should have known. His songs about his own experiences draw us in like they are about our own too. Its called, striking the common chord, and Alex does that extremely well.” 
-Mark Zues, The Americana 

“Alex Coba’s album is refreshing and entertaining. His voice marries splendidly with the lyrics and melodies. It’s difficult to declare a favorite song, as each uniquely impresses you. Coba’s music is just good ol’ Texas story telling with a hint of James Taylor. It is perfect to listen to whether I am driving, in my office writing, or enjoying a sunset from my porch.” 
-Ron Lang, Best-Selling Author
